Children look forward eagerly to celebrating festivals. This timeless sourcebook helps families explore the festivals—those feast days scattered around the year that children love. The underlying theme is a simple yet bold suggestion—if celebrating festivals was formerly the focus of community life then, recreated today, those celebrations will enrich the whole family as well as school life.
Included in this book are festive stories, songs, things to make, treats, simple recipes, fun games, activities, traditions, a birthday calendar, and poems to mark the seasons.
Each season has its own festival. Each of the eighteen celebrations—Martinmas, Candlemas, Whitsun (Pentecost), for example—has its own chapter, with sections on birthdays, teatimes, rainy days, convalescence, and more.
This bestselling festival guide is illustrated by Cornelie Morris and Sylvia Mehta and features music by Rob Mehta. Read less
